I gave a presentation on Ekanite — the syslog server with built-in search — tonight at the San Francisco Go Meetup. It was an enjoyable evening, and I had a chance to discuss why I built Ekanite, how it works, and where it might go in the future.

It was amusing to see how naive much of my early Go code was.

In the last post we examined the design and implementation of Ekanite, a system for indexing log data, and making that data available for search in near-real-time. Is this final post let’s see Ekanite in action.

This is the second part of a 3-part series “Designing and building a search system for log data”. Be sure to check out part 1. Part 3 follows this post.
In the previous post I outlined some of the high-level requirements for a system that indexed log data, and makes that data available for search, all in near-real-time. Satisfying these requirements involves making trade-offs, and sometimes there are no easy answers.
